* lightening/x86.c (jit_try_shorten): If the address is within the
last instruction, don't shorten. If the intstruction is a jump, we
could elide it entirely in some cases, but we don't know if the user
captured the PC before calling jit_patch_here. Better to leave this
to the user.
Thanks to Helmut Eller for the bug report and test case in
https://gitlab.com/wingo/lightening/-/issues/17.
* lightening.h:
* lightening/lightening.c (jit_begin_data, jit_end_data)
(jit_emit_u8, jit_emit_u16, jit_emit_u32, jit_emit_u64): Add new raw
data-emitting primitives, bracketed by begin/end so that we can flush
constant pools first, if needed.
* lightening/lightening.c (struct jit_state): Add new emitting_data
flag.
(jit_begin, jit_reset, jit_end): Handle the new flag.
(emit_abs_reloc): Move here, from x86.c.
* lightening/x86.c (emit_abs_reloc): Remove.
(jit_try_shorten): Don't shorten if loc == start; could be raw data.
* tests/jmp_table.c: New test.
* lightening/x86.c (reset_abi_arg_iterator): Reserve 32 stack bytes on
64-bit Windows systems, in accordance with ABI. Thanks a million to
Charles Stanhope for the patch and to Mike Gran for testing!
This improves integration with other projects. Like for example Guile
already has files named jit.c and jit.h; it's easier to manage if
lightening uses its own file names.
